HORSES IN THIS YEARS EPSOM DERBY. Complete List of All Eligible* Arranged in Groups Under Their Trainers Names. Greatest of all races run each year is the world famous Epsom Derby. Annually in England it is an impressive event to look forward to and date back from. To view it parliament adjourns and from king to costermonger a countless throng gathers to acclaim its decision. In no way does the Derby of 1908 lack its customary importance, and every loyal Briton hopes that King Edwards big colt. Perrier. will gallop away with its honors. In an exhaustive review of the race a recent edition of the Sportsman says: "Now that there has been a certain amount of preliminary wagering on the Derby, it will l»e of general interest to give a table showing by whom and where the large number of horses still in the chief race of the coming season under Jockey Club rules are trained. All told, the horses not struck out number 1K7, but of these nine cannot run. l eing geldings, and eight others are trained in the lnited States, and therefore highly improbable runners. This leaves us with 170, and of these 142 are iu public English training stables, ten trained privately, two in Ireland, and no fewer than sixteen in France. "As fortune is supposed, as a rule, to be on the side of the big battalions, it may be advisable to first take a. glance at the stables most numerously represented. Three trainers have each no fewer than eight aspirants to the fame attaching to a Derby winner. Almost needless to say that in eluded in the three are W. Waugh. the present master of the famous Kingsclere establishment, and P. P. Gilpin. The latter won his first Derby two years ago with Spearmint, and some people think that if Galvani had been at his liest he would have scored a second victor/ for J.Iarehayen_last year. The third trainer having eight Derby candidates in his care Is A. Taylor. Neither W. Waugh nor Taylor has as yet experienced the pleasure of winning a Derby, but only one horse can win it each season, and lioth trainer, have already had the felicity of saddling a St. Leger winner. Another trainer with a biggish Derby string is G. Black well, who has seven in his charge »t Newmarket, where Mr. G. Lamhton— who last week returned to Newmarket from the Mediterranean seaboard in order to supervise active operations — is also strongly represented, six of his three-year olds being in the chief Epsom classic. When Colonel Hall Walkers horses come from the north to Russley H. R Persse will likewise have six Derby horses to train. At Newmarket again R. Marsh is responsible for five, including the kings colt. Perrier, and R. Sherwood, J. Watson, and T Waugh for four each. Seven trainers have three Derby candidates a piece in their stables, and among those with only one or two can be mentioned Major Edwards, one of whose pair. Mountain Apple, has yet to taste defeat, and Sir C. Nugent, whose hopes rest solely on that good colt. Prospector. Details: Won. 2d. 3d.Cn. Archer, C. Newmarket-Slavery o Armstrong. R. W..
